Miscellaneous magnus.conf Directives
228 Netscape Enterprise Server Administrator’s Guide
Note
If you have an
init-cgi
function in the
obj.conf
file and you are running
in multi-process mode, you must add
LateInit = yes
to the
init-cgi
line.
MinCGIStubs
/
MaxCGIStubs
/
CGIStubIdleTimeout
The three directives (and their defaults) that can be placed in the
magnus.conf
file to control
Cgistub
are :
MinCGIStubs 2
MaxCGIStubs 10
CGIStubIdleTimeout 45
MinCGIStubs
controls the number of processes that are started by default.
The first
CGIStub
process is not started until a CGI program has been
accessed. The default value is 2. Note that if you have a i
nit-cgi
directive in
the
obj.conf
file, the minimum number of
CGIStub
processes are spawned
at startup.
MaxCGIStubs
controls the maximum number of
CGIStub
processes the
server can spawn. This is the maximum concurrent
CGIStub
processes in
execution, not the maximum number of pending requests. The default value
shown should be adequate for most systems. Setting this too high may actually
reduce throughput. The default value is 10.
CGIStubIdleTimeout
causes the server to kill any
CGIStub
processes that
have been idle for the number of seconds set by this directive. Once the
number of processes is at
MinCGIStubs
it does not kill any more processes.
Buffer Size
SndBufSize/RcvBufSize
You can specify the size of the send buffer (
SndBufSize
) and the receiving
buffer (
RcvBufSize
) at the server’s sockets. For more information regarding
these buffers, see your Unix documentation.
